.US

.US Domain Registration

The .US country-code top-level extension was established in 1985 and designated to the USA, but it was opened to the public in 2002. It is one of the most widespread country-specific extensions due to the fact that quite a lot US firms prefer to use a local domain and the US market is one of the largest around the world. Lots of institutions, agencies and local governments also used or still use second-, third- or even fourth-level dot US domains together with their official .GOV domain names.

We are one of the registrars offering .US registrations and your new domain will be up and running within the hour after you order it. The registration period is between 1 and 10 years and you can also move over an existing domain and we will renew it once the transfer is done and the domain is registered on our end. Through our Hepsia Control Panel, you will have full control over your domain name – you will be able to change your WHOIS info, to park your domain, to add custom records, etc.

Only American citizens, residents, organizations and corporations can acquire .US domains, so foreign entities have to have a local presence, whilst individuals from other countries cannot register such domains. To enforce these prerequisites, the Registry organization that supervises the TLD – Neustar, performs arbitrary audits on existing domain names. This is also the reason for this country-code domain extension not to support Whois Privacy Protection, so the Registrant (owner) info will always be publicly accessible upon a WHOIS lookup.
